YUMMY!! If this gets better the next day than I really wish I had made more. The juices are great with crusty bread. Left out the capsicum because I just don't like them, but added a 6.5 oz jar of marinated quartered artichoke hearts. I would definately suggest calamata olives as they give the best flavor for this dish. Thanks for a new quick and very tastey weeknight dinner.
